Update 2007-05-10: I’ve received several inquiries from people regarding the status of their EasyPay applications or accounts. Please note that this site is in no way affiliated with the MTA or the EasyPay program. If you have questions or concerns about the program, contact the MTA. Whatever you do, please don’t leave your credit card number and expiration date in the comments here. I’ve also been asked by a few people to send them an application. If you are in need of an application, please download the application from the MTA’s site (this was linked to in the original post as well).

I have only one complaint: The EasyPay Metrocard does not work on the Airtrain at JFK. Inserting the EasyPay card in the turnstile at Airtrain yields a “see agent” message. The agent I saw was quite curious about my strange looking Metrocard as she had never seen one before. After a few questions, she politely directed me to one of the Metrocard vending machines so I could purchase a more conventional card.

My dreams of never having to visit a Metrocard vending machine again have been dashed. Nevertheless, I’m happy to buy Metrocards when I need to go to the airport rather than every 12 trips on the subway or bus.
